- 1). Raise and support the hood.
- 2). Locate the battery, which is positioned toward the front driver's side of the engine bay. Depending on the specific Ford model, you may have to remove and set aside a plastic cover found over the battery.
- 3). Find the negative battery terminal. This is the black one, and it will be marked with a minus sign. Using a socket, remove the single bolt holding the terminal in place. Remove the terminal from the battery stud. Ensure that the terminal no longer makes contact with the stud.
- 4). Wait 15 minutes, then replace the terminal on the stud and tighten the bolt using the socket set. This resets the engine's computer system along with the SES light.
